How to attack him?

    Just started a $5 Extended STT on PPP, before I have much of a chance to get involved in any hands we are down to 4 players with 7mins still left in the first level. Player in seat 8 has just taken down a train wreck and is 4 * starting stack already. So what to do now sit back and start to wait out to get into the money, or try and take advantage of his terrible play and start chipping up off him.

    Problem is he will lead out and call preflop with any 2 cards, I reckon to have a chance it will be with post flop play. I do feel tho he is just getting hit in the face with the deck at the moment and will win it no matter how crap he is

    In this situation I will play for 2nd place - then try to beat the monster stack heads-up. Assuming you are against one donkey (the chip leader) and two unknowns (therefore we assume they are poor), I would play tight against the chip leader and my usual game against the other two. If the chip leader doubles either of the other two up, well then my strategy changes again, but in the meantime I personally avoid getting many chips in pre-flop vs the chip leader, unless I have a monster.

    Finished now, thats exactly how I played him , got up to 6k out of the 18k in play when cl was down to his lowest @ 10k, walked my QQ into his 69o after i raised 2.5 times the BB preflop, and he hit trips, but htats not the point. My real concern was how and in what way to get at him. And as I suspected he had such obvious betting patterns when he hit TP or MP on the flop and also if he missed and I stole loads of pots that way.

    He's on the buddy list now!
